Yep...it's true...at least be nice and give him a nice lawn chair.

Wow...I got tired just reading your report....LOL. I dont know how you do it...seriously!! I get in our canoe for 3 hours and my back is killing and I'm exhausted and there are no portages, very little water that's too shallow for the trolling motor etc.... Amazing report as usual Moose....the story and pics allows me to imagine what you two experienced. Very pretty scenery...almost as nice as the Shire...you'll have to come fish here sometime. The fish are a little smaller, but we do ok down here....LOL.

Now that's a fish fry! Awesome report and pics. Looks like everyone had a good time...maybe some had too much of a good time....LOL.

Now THATS ugly!!!! The fish isn't pretty either!!!!

I cant really afford a Blackberry, but my cell phone does allow me to access my web based email. Kind of a pain in the butt to send messages, but I have the functionality if it's absolutely necessary to reply.

So where are the fish pictures??? LOL. I know you have some, you've changed your avatar!! Too bad about those guys in the boat, but at least he had some issues of his own after that stunt!!!

Wow Gerritt. We knew that you had lost your son, but we weren't around this board at the time. We cant imagine what you and your family went through. We will take your advice though...and hug our family LOTS. You are a great dad Gerritt, and what you went through serves as a reminder that every single day is precious, and to never take anything for granted. You will be in our thoughts. Cliff and Carole

Brian....wow!!! What an amazing report. 6 pounder...congrats on the new PB! When I have a big fish on, I do the same thing you did...talk to myself...LOL. I say "keep the tip up....don't horse it.....know which direction the fish is going....damn...keep that tip up!!!"

Welcome to the best place on the net! My wife and I rediscovered fishing about a year ago as well, and this board has been a wealth of knowledge for us. We've met many of the members and always have a great time. My advice fishing from shore is to decide what you would like to target and then start asking questions!! That's how we did it and have had some success over the past year. Nice introduction and happy fishing! PS....as someone else already said, fishing from shore can be good right into December if it does not get too cold!!!

Sounded like tough conditions all right! At least you managed to boat some fish...and those muskies REALLY sounded like they didn't want to come aboard you boat! Done with the Kawarthas and onto Quinte? That's where you really shine Shawn!! Go get 'em this year!

"blood curdling shriek sent them packing" You sure it wasn't shrieking like a school girl?? Oh wait...TJ has that department. Great report and pics Mike...they are always a pleasure to read and view. The cottage is now closed up for the season, the fall and winter is upon us, but spring will be here soon enough, with the promise of more great memories for next year.

Yet another good report! Nice to meet up with fellow ofner's as well!

LOL...you guys are hilarious! Looked like a nice quiet time up there...another chapter of camp jiggy...nice to be along for the ride. I'm just waiting for it's completion...so I can come visit... Dont want to come to early in case you put some tools in my hands...and trust me you dont want to do that!!!

Nice fish! You did better than I did yesterday. I'm still using my summer waders as well...gotta love 30C weather in October. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!

LOL...looks like a great time TJ! Good luck and be safe. The tiara is the key to my success....doesn't look as good on you as it does me, but hey, you gotta start somewhere....LOL

Ok, so it's not the most glamorous fish, but it was BIG for the species. After casting spoon after spoon looking for some salmon after the rains last night, I set up a bottom rig with a good ole worm on it. A serious tug on the line and this is what I brought in....a BIG BULLHEAD. Now, the Ontario record is 16.38 inches and 2.37 pounds...caught in 1989. This one measured in at 15 inches and 2.10 pounds!!! We used our Berkley digital scale for the "unofficial" weigh in. Here are two pics of the same fish...one to show perspective on how thick the fish was (and no I didn't land it in the net...LOL). The second is the beauty shot...haha. Too bad this isn't an OFAH species for the angler awards....LOL.

Here here Blake! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well. Just finished our turkey dinner and dessert...I think I'm too stuffed to fish tonite....LOL Take care!

Is you son available for guiding at that spot?? LOL Kids are a natural when it comes to fishing I think. My 5 yr old daughter regularly outfishes me too...haha. Great report...happy thanksgiving.

LOL....nice Wayne!! Great job Mike...for just an hour of fishing I'd say you guys did really well! Hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving.

Thanks all...Bly had no idea I made that face when she took that pic. When she took a look to make sure the shot was ok, she just burst out laughing. It was the first carp I've caught since June I think...looks like they are coming back shallow again in my area.

You took some cool pictures! Yeah...rained heavily in my neck of the woods too...the tribs will be high and chocolate milk for sure tomorrow...should be prime fishing Monday though! Thanks for the report.

Sweet pics! I didn't get out today...wish I did!!!

Great report! Nathalie is quite the angler there. Great pics and description of the days events...thanks for taking the time to share!

Holy moly! What a fish! Great catch and great pic!

Happy Birthday Patrick G! Looks like you guys had a blast out there today....lots of great lunker bass! Video was a cool touch to the report as well Sean. Great report, great outing....cant ask for much more than that! Congrats guys.
